Today, civic participation occurs at many levels. We make impactful decisions about our community every time we make a purchase, vote, post on social media and, of course, volunteer. We think any awareness we can bring to the many resources that might spur individual action for good, falls right in line with what we’re up to at HandsOn.

Spread Christmas Cheer

Each year the Salvation Army hosts a free meal at the Phoenix Convention Center on Christmas day. There will be music, games, gifts, and an appearance from Santa Clause. With this large event, they need help to ensure the children and families that attend have a happy holiday.

Be a Holiday Meal Greeter! We are in need of 100 people to welcome everyone in as if they were hosting. Take this opportunity to mingle and spread cheer to everyone in attendance. This volunteer commitment will be from 8:30 am - 12:30 pm.

Want to be a gift giver? Sign up as a Hall of Joy Volunteer! In this role you will serve as crowd control and distributing toys to children and goodie bags to adult guests. This volunteer commitment will be from 11:00 am - 2:30 pm.

PVSA Recipients

The Presidential Volunteer Service Awards recognizes the individuals that go above and beyond in their commitment to helping their communities.

HandsOn Greater Phoenix was delighted to honor Rishan and Rasya who accomplished so much in a year. Our two young volunteers reached 67 hours of volunteering at local nonprofits to help those in need. They spent their time preparing meals at St. Vincent de Paul, packing food with St. Mary's Food Bank and Feed My Starving Children, and spreading kindness with Ben's Bells and the Be Kind Project.

Thank you Rishan and Rasya for your hard work and helping to make a better community!
